Hello! I'm Atishay, a Computer Science and Entrepreneurship graduate from Rice University, currently working as a Software Engineer at Meta. I specialize in helping candidates successfully navigate the competitive tech interview process and secure offers at leading companies.

My Background:
I've secured offers from both Google and Meta, and have professional experience at Capital One and Wall Street firms. Throughout my career, I've interviewed extensively with major tech companies (FAANG+) and top quantitative trading firms, giving me deep insight into what different types of companies look for in candidates. As a teaching assistant for advanced algorithms and data structures courses for 4 semesters, I've guided hundreds of students through complex technical concepts.

What I Can Help You With:
Coding Interviews: LeetCode preparation, algorithm optimization, and problem-solving strategies for technical screens
System Design: Scalable architecture discussions for senior-level interviews
Behavioral Interviews: Crafting compelling stories, demonstrating leadership principles and responding with confidence
Resume & LinkedIn Optimization: Positioning yourself to pass ATS systems and catch recruiter attention
Recruiting Strategy: Leveraging alumni networks effectively, maximizing referrals, and building your interview pipeline
Product/ML Interviews: Technical discussions for specialized roles
Market Navigation: Standing out in the saturated tech job market with strategic positioning

Whether you're targeting internships at tech companies, quant firms, or full-time positions, I'll help you identify gaps in your preparation and develop a customized strategy to land offers. Please feel free to reach out, and we can discuss how to better help you get through this process :).

Computer Science

Computer Science

As a Computer Science senior at Rice University (T20) and FAANG Software Engineering Intern, I bring hands-on expertise in algorithms, data structures, and full-stack development. I’ve taught 200+ students as a TA for Rice’s Algorithm courses (COMP 182/382) and optimized machine learning pipelines at Capital One, improving model accuracy by 25%. My projects, like a 93.5%-accurate ML skin lesion classifier and a 97%-accurate AI plagiarism detector, demonstrate my ability to simplify complex concepts. I also mentor students in coding interviews, system design, and Python/Java best practices, ensuring academic and career success.
Data Science

Data Science

As a Computer Science senior at Rice University (T20), I specialize in data science and machine learning, with hands-on experience in Python, SQL, TensorFlow, and PyTorch. I’ve built and deployed ML models, including a skin lesion classification platform with 93.5% validation accuracy and an AI-plagiarism detector achieving 97% accuracy. At Capital One, I optimized NLP pipelines using Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) models, improving accuracy by 25%, and at Conversight.ai, I fine-tuned Google’s T5 LLM to reduce model hallucinations by 35%. As a teaching assistant for algorithms and data structures, I help students master foundational concepts and practical applications in data science.
Data Structures

Data Structures

As an incoming FAANG Machine Learning Engineer and a senior Computer Science student at Rice University (3.9 GPA), I have a deep, practical understanding of data structures. I served four semesters as a Teaching Assistant for Rice's COMP 382 (Advanced Data Structures and Algorithms) and COMP 182 (Intro to Algorithmic Thinking), guiding over 200 students each semester. My responsibilities included explaining concepts like tree structures, hashing, graph algorithms, and helping students implement them effectively in assignments and labs using languages like Python and Java. This extensive teaching experience ensures I can clearly break down even the most complex data structure topics.
Discrete Math

Discrete Math

I'm a senior majoring in Computer Science with work experience in Fortune 500 companies. I've been a teaching assistant for advanced algorithms and data structures for four semesters in college and will be working at a FAANG company post grad.
Hindi

Hindi

As a native Hindi speaker with 15 years of experience living in India, I bring deep cultural and linguistic expertise to Hindi tutoring. I scored 95/100 in my 10th-grade Hindi board exams, mastering grammar, literature, and writing skills. Whether you’re learning conversational Hindi, preparing for exams, or improving reading/writing fluency, I tailor lessons to your goals using real-world examples and interactive exercises. Let’s make Hindi fun and effective!
Machine Learning/ AI

Machine Learning/ AI

As a Computer Science student at Rice University, I have gained practical AI/ML experience through internships at Capital One. My work involved building RAG pipelines using LangChain/LlamaIndex, fine-tuning Large Language Models, and applying frameworks like PyTorch and TensorFlow. Additionally, I have served as a Teaching Assistant for Rice's advanced algorithms and data structures courses for four semesters, honing my ability to explain complex technical concepts effectively. I am well-versed in modern AI technologies and am soon starting a full-time as an ML Engineer at a FAANG company

Great start!

Atishay had a plan to show basic concepts and functionality as well as exercises to practice. He was patient and helpful and showed me the concepts then asked me to practice on my own screen. I look forward to our next lesson.
